Amazon's predictive value is pretty heavily compromised. The Switch having only 2 SKUs on Amazon vs the multiples for PS4 and Xbone already distorted things (NPD has kinda confirmed this with PS4 winning months while Switch would have the highest single SKU). But now Amazon and Sony are having a bit of a conflict. Amazon has stopped selling PS4s directly. The assumption based on Amazon's history is that they are pressuring for a better deal from Sony. So right now, Amazon's just a single data point and not comprehensive. It's plenty accurate for Switch vs Xbone right now but that's about as hard to predict as the sun rising. So if you want prediction discussions, the NPD Prediction Tool thread is probably best. Right now this is mostly just sales discussion and Amazon discussion. |
Thanks for the informative reply. I knew they were having an argument that was affecting psn cards and ps4 game pre orders but had no idea it's been extended to the ps4.
I was already losing interest in this thread when it's reliability started to suffer but now they aren't even selling the ps4 I've no interest whatsoever. This thread was useful at one point now it's dead to me.
